We are estimated to get temperatures as high as 109 degrees Fahrenheit throughout Oregon and Washington this weekend. It is crucial that we pay attention to the warnings from officials during this time in order to prevent fires from happening, especially after having such a dry spring!

If you are planning on traveling, the Northwest Interagency Coordination Center fire map shows where there are active fires and their status so you can prepare accordingly.

This is also a good time to go over fire safety plans with your household and place of work. Check out Home Fire Safety plan by The American Red Cross for more information.

Red Flag warnings are already beginning to be issued throughout the area. It’s important to know the rules where you live. Some fires are due to lightning and powerlines we can’t prevent, but let’s work together on what we can do!
